This market will resolve to "Yes" if the NFL officially announces a rule change that prohibits, limits, or penalizes the “tush push” from being used in the 2026 season before the start of the first regular season game of the 2026 NFL season. Otherwise this market will resolve to “No”. The “tush push” refers to a football play in which an offensive player or multiple offensive players line up directly behind the quarterback and push the quarterback forward immediately after the snap. A qualifying rule change must affect the use of this play. Partial bans, such as rules that ban pushing the quarterback only in certain situations (e.g. on quarterback sneaks), restrict who can push the quarterback, or impose penalties that specifically target the “tush push” formation or execution, will qualify. The market will resolve based on the first official announcement from the NFL. If the league announces that the tush push will not be banned for the 2026 NFL season, this market will resolve to “No”. Announcements of future rule changes affecting the use of the "tush push" which don't apply to the 2026 NFL season will not qualify. The resolution source for this market will be official NFL announcements however a consensus of credible reporting may also be used. The absence of any submitted proposal to ban the Tush Push (also known as the Brotherly Shove) ahead of the NFL's March 2026 owners meetings has anchored trader consensus that the play remains legal for the 2026 season. After prior attempts, including a 2025 Packers-led effort that fell short of the required votes, teams have shifted focus to defensive adjustments rather than rule changes, with reports confirming no Competition Committee or club initiatives targeting the Eagles' short-yardage formation. This reflects broader acceptance following successful stops against the play in 2025 and the established 2005 rule permitting teammate assistance. Near-certain pricing aligns with the finalized 2026 rulebook, though late-season injuries, extreme safety incidents, or rare mid-cycle Competition Committee actions could theoretically reopen debate before the season concludes.
